[Bug 460857] Re: ftdi serial driver broken in linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic (2.6.31-14.48)

@Kendric (#17):

Although this compiled and installed, it didn't fix my problem.  I
contacted FTDI directly, and the engineer there said that the latest
driver (v 1.5.0) should work fine with 64-bit Karmic.  He sent me a link
to the driver source -
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP/Linux/ftdi_sio.tar.gz which I
downloaded.

Although the driver that you kindly provided shows to be version 1.5.0
as well, there are major differences between it and the one I got from
FTDI.  Do you know why?  It seems that if changes were made, then the
version would be different.  I tried to compile the "official" FTDI
version, but got a bazillion errors.  I even tried replacing the source
in your fix with the "official" source and it still wouldn't compile.

I'm getting desperate to get this working.
